next time think: Irony

Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall--confucius

"The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page." anon

A man is but the product of his thoughts--what he thinks, he becomes. Gandhi

but still I can do something;
and because I cannot do everything,
I will not refuse to do something that I can do. edward everett hale

Doom to you who legislate evil, who make laws that make victims -- laws that make misery for the poor, that rob my destitute people of dignity, exploiting defenseless widows, taking advantage of homeless children. What will you have to say on Judgment Day, when Doomsday arrives out of the blue? Who will you get to help you? What good will your money do you? (Isaiah 10:1-3, The Message)

There is nothing in the world more beautiful than the forest clothed to its very hollows in snow. It is the still ecstasy of nature, wherein every spray, every blade of grass, every spire of reed, every intricacy of twig, is clad w/radiance. william sharp

I think no matter how old or infirm I may become, I will always plant a large garden in the spring. Who can resist the feelings of hope and joy that one gets from participating in nature's rebirth? edward giobbi

Irony

Funny that MA has health care for everyone--no wonder it wasn't an important issue in the state.

Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski "Aims to keep EPA from limiting emissions" and her effort "is applauded by industry, agriculture and energy lobbies" See p. A14 in NYTIMES Jan 22, 2010. This is great since the Supreme Court with wisdom unlimited has allowed corporations to finance political campaigns for the presidency and congress. I just know that we as individuals will also be allowed to give as much as we have, if we have anything when the blessed corporations (banks, insurance companies, etc) finally get in total control. Yea America.
For: Kennedy, Roberts, Alito, Scalia, Thomas
Dissent: Stevens, Ginsburg, Sotomayor, Breyer
Wonder who supported the FOR nominees when they were nominated and approved?

The Michigan arms company, Trijicon, will stop using Bible references on rifle sights it sells to the military. Why? Were they like "Thou shalt not kill?" or "Turn the other cheek?" or. . .

How long can one party keep saying no and intentionally halting any progress, any solutions to economic problems? Check out Michigan for sure. JUST SAY NO ALWAYS is the mantra.

Why do we have money for Haiti, but millions in America without insurance? Kind of like money for warfare but none for healthcare.
